I. Notes on PCs with Power Save Mode When the USB camera is used with a PC that has the power save mode, such as a PC with the Intel Core i3, i5, or i7 CPU, the following problem may occur. An image cannot be obtained with the USB camera A frame drops frequently * The issue may occur with other USB camera manufacturers as well. A. Cause of the Issue The PC becomes unable to transfer the image because the CPC frequently enters the power save mode during the image transfer. B. Solutions for the Issue This problem can be avoided by disabling the power save mode. However, depending on the PC, the power save mode cannot be disabled and the desired effect may not be achieved. In addition, when the power save mode is disabled, undesired effects such as an increase of the power consumption and the heat of the PC may occur. 1. Disable the power save mode by changing the BIOS settings. Either set ACPI C State to Disable or decrease the Max ACPI C State value step by step until you see the effect (i.e. C3->C2->C1). (The setting method and the naming may differ, and/or these settings cannot be changed depending on the PC.) Please contact the manufacturer of the PC about the BIOS setting. ACPI C State and Max ACPI C State may have different names depending on the PC. Users will be responsible for any change made to the BIOS setting. The power consumption and the heat of the PC will increase whenever the power save mode is disabled. Please understand and accept this before disabling the power save mode. 2. Disable the power save mode with the Sentech PC power management software (StPowerCtrl) Please refer to the Start-Up Guide for the details. 3. Change the camera blanking period and reduce frame rate.

The polarity of Trigger Output Programmable, Trigger Output Loop Through, Exposure End, CCD Read End Output, Strobe Output Programmable, Strobe Output Exposure and Trigger Valid Out is selectable. Negative Polarity is recommended to use to reduce the timing delay due to open drain output.

Disabled Set when no output signal is necessary. 2). General Output Outputs high or low level signal set on the software. 3). Trigger Output Programmable Outputs the trigger input signal with delay setting applied. 4). Trigger Output Loop Through Outputs the trigger input sign (with a slight internal delay). 5). Exposure End Output a signal upon the completion of the first line exposure. ( Trigger Out Delay and Trigger Pulse Width settings are applied.) 6). Read End Output Output a signal upon the completion of the transfer of a full frame. ( Trigger Out Delay and Trigger Pulse Width settings are applied.) 7). Strobe Output Programmable Output a signal for the period set with strobe end delay, starting at the trigger input signal with the addition of strobe start delay 8). Strobe Output Output a signal during the first lien of exposure*. Product Specifications 13 Ver 1.00
9). Trigger Valid Out With the positive polarity setting, high status indicates that the input trigger signal is acceptable. This signal becomes low from the exposure start to the end of image output. With the negative polarity setting, low status indicates that the input trigger signal is acceptable. This signal becomes high from the exposure start to the end of image output. * Because this camera is a rolling shutter type, the exposure start timing of each line is not simultaneous.
